Description:
This model has been developed in the book The Leadership Challenge by James Kouzes and Barry Posner in 1987, and has developed a large practice of adoption across the world. The concept is based on Five Practices identified in the research, and that the authors claim are still valid more than thirty years after the original study.
Behind each of the five practices there is a set of established behaviours, that the authors linked to the individual feelings of people when they felt at their best. The model is calling in directly the concept of leading by example, articulating this into practices that establish effective leadership.
